TURE OF WEST VIRGINIA:

l. The sale, Offering exposing or keeping

:. III any person shall sell, offer, expose or

A Remarkable Cure.

~ cheerfully add my testimony to the
goodness of DR.. Seth Arnold's Cough Killer,
having been by it entirely cured of a severe
lung affection, which according to good ply
sicians in this State, had reached an incip-
lent stage of consumption. Had tried said
physicians aud numerous proprietary rem
edies without effect, but few bottles OF DR.
Seth Arneld's Cough killer set me all right.
Have recommended it to friends and ac-
quaintances who have used 1t with the same
gratifying results, and consider it the best
cough remedy ever discovered.
Gratefully yours, M. d. sTRATroN, Special

Law for the Lawless

The Prohibition contest at
Charleston goes on forever, it seems,
and DO stone is left unturned by
the radical Prohibitionist cham
pions to induce members of the
Legislature to vote to foist USE
less and injurious law upon this
and some other sections of the
State. Register.
Remember that law is for the
lawless. The sick boy rarely likes
the medicine he must take, but it
is good for him and he must take
it, all the same. 1t is useless for
Wheeling liquor advocates to be
making ugly mouths. Prohioi-
ton will be good for them, and Of
ter the medicine has its effect the
city will feel heap better.

Mr.. Abner woodward departed this life
Feb. Goth, 1887 after a long illness, aged Al
years. He was "a member of the Christian
church and was faithful to his profession.
Ever ready to assist the needy anu afflicted,
he sympathised deeply with the suffering
and sorrowing. He bore his Affections with
christian fortitude and was resigned to his
Heavenly Fathers Will. A kind and de-
voted son, an affectionate brother, and
friend, he was esteemed by all his acqnain-
tances. We deeply feel his loss, but have
the consolation to think he was a christian.

To Arms! to Arms I!


Hardly had the telegraph flashed
over the State the news of the
Submission of the Amendment,
till the w. c. T. U. were called to-
gether to plan for the oncoming
battle.
While this is being written, the
State Executive Committee with
number of gentlemen prominent
in Temperance work are in con-
sultation in this city, planning
and arranging for an immediate
advance on the enemy's works and
an aggressive campaign for the
adoption of the Amendment.
Among those present from 9TH
er points are Mrs. Hubbard of
Wheeling, Mrs. J. A. Smith, of
New Cumberland, Gen. 7. M. Har-
ris of Richie county and others.
Elaborate plans are being
agreed on and much vigorous work
laid out for the future, the par
tioulars of which shall be duly
announced.
Enthusiastic letters were read
from Hons. G. w. Atkinson, T. r.
Carskadon, Rev w. M. Weekley
and others. The sentiment is
unanimous in favor of a united Of
fort for the ratification of the
Amendment on the part of all
friends of all parties, All present
are anxious for an early conference
or Convention to thoroughly organ
ize all Temperance forces for the
campaign.
What say the friends through
out the State? Let the Freeman
hear from you. There's big fight
before US. Let every true man
and woman fall promptly into
line.
The freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1886-18??, 1887-03-02
The Ereeman.S Excuse.

Elsewhere the Freeman has
made apology for its hardness this
week. And now as the disappoint-
ment in getting paper has delayed
this issue till Saturday, it will be
impossible for US to get out paper
on time next week; and needing
a little time to get matters in
shape after the editors prolonged
absence at Charleston, in the
struggle for the Amendment, it is
thought best to ask our subsori-
bers to excuse the Freeman for one
week. After next week it will be
on time again, fuller of facts and
fight than ever.

High License.

All right. The Legislature rails
